Chapter 1: Eighteen Years Old
Spring has passed for 20 years, and I am trapped in not remembering my home.
Your heart is like my heart, and your heart is like my heart.
Thinking of the old love, the bone erosion lovesickness punishment.
Unswerving love until death, life should be remembered.
King Jin's Mansion will present gifts to Shou'an Palace every month, and the anther pillow sent this month is unique in the world.
"Xia Huaijin, you and I have been twenty-two years. ”
An Ronghua is over forty years old, she stares at herself in the mirror, her face is no less than when she was young, but she is elegant and noble, and the years precipitated in her eyes have swept away the dust of time.
Recalling the past, twenty-two years ago in the spring of Yangchun, when Emperor Shengzu was in power, she first entered the court to give gifts, and a flying phoenix dance amazed all beings.
Married to the crown prince, registered as the queen, gave birth to the prince, and in the end, became the queen mother who was alone.
An Ronghua was born noble, and the mother was noble by virtue of her son, and the glory was noble. But behind the word "expensive", there is a lover who is separated, there is no part in this life, the husband is dead, and yin and yang are separated.
Pillowing the anther pillow sent by King Jin's mansion, An Ronghua's lonely pillow is no longer sleepable.
An Yonghua thought countless times in her mind, if her life could be repeated, would she still have a choice?
Under a thunderstorm in the middle of the night, An Ronghua's dream was also a thunderous and lightning rainy day, which was remembered in the moment of purpose.
"I'm going to enter the Prince's Mansion next month, and I won't make any agreements with you. An Ronghua turned his back to Xia Huaijin, the clouds in his words were light and light, and the dark tide in his eyes was turbulent.
Fifteen-year-old Xia Huaijin replayed a lingering and affectionate phoenix, and after the sound of the piano, he ripped off the strings of the phoenix tail piano alive, and the blood in his palm penetrated the strings and stained the body red.
"I, Xia Huaijin, will no longer play the piano from today onwards. ”
"Huai Jin!" An Ronghua woke up in his dream, his heart suddenly fell into the void, and he fell down.
The sound of rain beating on the eaves of the temple was dripping and ticking.
An Ronghua got up in the morning, and Aunt Qiu, who served her on weekdays, was allowed by her to leave the palace and return to her hometown, and the other little palace maids did not have Aunt Qiu's intimacy for her master.
"Someone!"
As soon as An Ronghua called, she noticed that her sick voice had changed after arguing with hundreds of officials for more than ten years, she got up and sat down in front of the dressing table, and the moment she opened her eyes, she couldn't help but be shocked by her appearance reflected in the mirror.
An Ronghua touched her cheeks, touching her tender skin, her eyes and teeth, her flying eyebrows, and the brilliance in her eyes were all the most beautiful when she was eighteen years old.
"The Queen Mother. The palace maid outside the door called.
"Don't come in!" An Ronghua hurriedly reprimanded.
A quarter of an hour later, the palace maid came again to say goodbye, and the emperor came to ask for peace, but there was no response in the dormitory.
"Oh no, the Queen Mother is gone!"
The palace wall twisted and turned, and his footsteps flew through the rain deposit, An Ronghua walked out of the side door of Shou'an Palace, and even his legs and feet became young and neat.
"It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the queen mother of the mourning family became a chicken like a fugitive!"
An Ronghua had to run away and regain her youth and beauty overnight, how should she explain to all the officials in the world, and how should she face her son?
An Ronghua raised his sleeves to break through the heavy rain curtain, separated by a wall, An Ronghua approached step by step, outside the side door, an umbrella blocked the cold rain, he stopped outside, and did not hear the turmoil that broke out in the palace.
Without noticing that there was someone outside the door, An Ronghua flew up and down the steps and rammed into his chest.
The umbrella in his hand was knocked out of his hand, An Ronghua was knocked to the ground by his fierce counterforce, if the original old bone was afraid that it would fall apart directly, the queen mother who was hit was so angry that she raised her head angrily.
"Where did the bold slave ...... come from?"
An Ronghua's anger stopped abruptly, she looked up, her angry eyes were washed away by the rain, and in a glance, it was as if God had played a joke on her.
"Huai Jin!"
His name blurted out from between An Ronghua's lips and tongue, there are not many people in this world who can call him by his name like this now, and she in front of her is like an extremely familiar stranger.
Xia Huaijin, An Ronghua doesn't remember how many years she has been so out of shape with him, she was the queen mother, but now, she is so embarrassed.
Although there were raindrops disturbing her eyes, Xia Huaijin's calm eyes still lit up because of the woman in front of her, as if she had been dusting the years, and she seemed familiar. He bent down and squatted, and the umbrella blocked the rain that was wantonly spilled on An Ronghua's face.
"Who are you?" Xia Huaijin frowned inadvertently.
"Mourning ......"
An Ronghua reacted immediately, and his current appearance naturally could not be recognized with him.
"I am, the palace maid of Shou'an Palace. ”
An Ronghua's many years of inseparability made her clearly understand that this matter was fantastic, and Xia Huaijin might be the only life-saving straw she could grasp.
"The prince may not know the slave and the maid, but the slave and the maid know the prince. An Ronghua's words and demeanor did not have the posture of a servile, and the words seemed to have a deep meaning.
"How do you say this?" Xia Huaijin wondered.
"Please take me out of the palace immediately, the queen mother is interested and ordered me to inform the prince privately. An Ronghua moved out of the Queen Mother with a word, so that Xia Huaijin had nothing else to say.
Xia Huaijin, with his distinguished status, could easily take An Ronghua out of the palace. Out of the last palace gate, An Ronghua's mind did not relax for a minute.
"What the hell is going on, I have only heard of a white head overnight, but I have never known the truth of becoming young and beautiful overnight?" An Ronghua kneaded his cheeks.
Xia Huaijin could detect An Ronghua's nervousness and messy thoughts, but she couldn't help but be immersed in her many subtle expressions.
"It's so similar, is it because I'm crazy, or ......" Xia Huaijin came back to his senses and asked, "Now that you have left the palace, should you tell this king, what does the queen mother say?"
An Ronghua had to get out of his mind from his world of surprise, and the moment he turned to meet Xia Huaijin's eyes, the Queen Mother, who was neither humble nor arrogant in the face of hundreds of officials, was confused for a while.
"Mourning...... I, slave maid ......" An Ronghua looked for a suitable self-title, and in Xia Huaijin's eyes, he saw the love thread that had been sealed for many years.
Over the years, she has been working day and night, fighting courtiers in the court, protecting young children in the court, and maintaining the stability of the country as a weak woman. And on his Xia Huaijin's face, there is no old age, only maturity, a handsome appearance, and a suave temperament, and there is no trace of a few more years.
An Ronghua couldn't help but reach out and try to touch Xia Huaijin, but his fingertips had already touched his cheek, Xia Huaijin pushed An Ronghua's wrist, annihilating her sudden resurgence.
"Who are you?"
"You don't recognize me?" An Ronghua's eyes couldn't hide her loss, and before Xia Huaijin could answer, she continued, "Of course, the prince must not recognize my little slave, my name is Gu Nu, and I was recently sent to the palace by Anfu to take care of the queen mother." ”
"Since you are the palace people who are waiting for the queen mother, why are you fleeing in a panic in the palace, and let this king take you out of the palace? If you can't give this king a reasonable explanation, this king can immediately send you back to the palace and hand it over to the queen mother to deal with. ”
An Ronghua suddenly relaxed, Xia Huaijin was as stern and serious as ever, but naturally it didn't work for her.
Over the years, An Ronghua has faced thousands of situations, and his ability to deal with them is sufficient.
"The prince is wrong to blame me, I'm afraid that now, the prince just wants to take me into the palace and ask the queen mother for guilt, and there is no chance. An Ronghua smiled skillfully at the corner of his mouth.
"What the hell are you hiding?"
Concealment, An Ronghua suddenly had a thought, can she confess to Xia Huaijin, will he believe in his strange changes?
"He didn't even recognize me, so how could he trust me?"
